66. Well ...
it can be set up as a node, but used as standalone if it is not physically connected to the network. If I understand this correctly, it was attempting to connect to another networked computer (or one that had been networked recently) on a private LAN (What I would refer to as internal) - no different than the two computers I have on a LAN in my home connected via my Ethernet cards using the TPC/IP protocol. Each of them have their own (private) IP address. If one of them is not physically connected to the net, the other one gets lonely and tries to connect, and when it can't, sends a very similar error message to the one in this thread. IOW, they are not trying to dial out at all, they are trying to talk to each other within the internal LAN.
